One of the names under which Vishnu, in his incarnation as
Krishna, is worshiped by the Hindoos. [Written also

Note: The principal seat of the worship of Juggernaut is at

from the temple by the multitude, on a high car with
sixteen wheels. Formerly, fanatics sometimes threw
themselves under the wheels to be crushed as a
sacrifice to the god.
